Georgetown is a Community within the Greater Toronto Area, approximately 60 kilometers from Toronto. Officially, Georgetown is an area within the town of Halton Hills, which is part of the Regional Municipality of Halton.
The quaint community of Georgetown traces its roots back to 1818, when the British government began purchasing the land comprising Georgetown from the Mississauga first nation. Soon after, a man named George Kennedy acquired a parcel of this land from the British government. Kennedy went on to achieve success in business, founding and operating a successful mill. It was around 1837 when the area began to be referred to as Georgetown.
